Raw Steel Means Better Value
Because these plates are supplied in their raw steel form, they are not galvanized or zinc plated. You may notice minor surface rust upon arrival, which is completely normal and does not affect the strength or performance of the steel. Surface rust can be easily removed with sanding, grinding, or a wire brush before painting or welding.
Additionally, due to the shearing and manufacturing process, some plates may have a slight curve. This is common for steel of this size and thickness and can easily be corrected during installation or fabrication.
